“ I visited this restaurant 25 years ago and I really enjoyed the huge portions received so much that I brought three more stomachs to enjoy the food at my expense since I was the most experienced in unloading trucks of merchandise for my previous semiconductor employer. Keeping happy customers is overrated in my career choice of work as well. My son and I have managed to maintain our weight and height after all these years and hopefully I'll be blessed again to visit and eat the same portions of food before at the most reasonable prices I've addressed before. If I could suggest anything, I think the tables and chairs could have been taller, easier on the digestive system. Merry Christmas and a happy New Year. ”
“ We ordered the fried chicken wings and shrimp lo mein. It was so good!!!!! ”
“ Pretty good spot for Chicken and Fried Rice. Zero atmosphere, and the lady taking your order hardly speaks English, I'd go again for sure. ”
“ I recently visited the original Timmy Chan's and was absolutely delighted by the experience! The fried chicken wings were the highlight of my meal—crispy on the outside, juicy on the inside, and seasoned to perfection. They're some of the best I've ever had! To top it off, the Kool-Aid was surprisingly refreshing, the perfect sweet drink to complement the savory wings. This spot offers a no-frills dining experience where the focus is on delicious, hearty food. It's a must-visit for anyone craving authentic Chinese flavors with an American twist. Highly recommend! ”
